Hiya everyone! It's been a while since I posted an Advice article, so I'm super-duper happy someone actually asked me a question! Anonymous, whoever you are, thank you!
Okay, let's get started...
Dear Kitty,
Lately, I have been growing new interests and now my BFF and I have less and less in common. What should I do to stay in touch?

Dear Backstab,
This situation is similar to the one in my first Advice article, yet there are more ways to handle this. First, observe how your friend is acting. If her/his "new interests" seem to be making her/him less of a good person, than attempt to talk to her/him about what is happening and how you might be able to save your relationship. Believe me, I have had situations like this, it is not that hard to talk to your BFF even if s/he is changing quite a bit. Also keep track of how s/he is changing, like if it as deep as personality-wise or can be fixed, like a small habit. Finally, if all else fails and you and your BFF seen to be as distant as America and England, maybe the best choice is to just let go. It's not worth it to hang on to a bad person even though they might have been an amazing friend in the past. After all, if you break up, there are still other friends to me made. Life is made for mistakes and choices, not regrets.
